Hardware decoding things often need access to additional handles from
the windowing system, such as the X11 or Wayland display when using
vaapi. The opengl-cb had nothing dedicated for this, and used the weird
GL_MP_MPGetNativeDisplay GL extension (which was mpv specific and not
officially registered with OpenGL).
This was awkward, and a pain due to having to emulate GL context
behavior (like needing a TLS variable to store context for the pseudo GL
extension function). In addition (and not inherently due to this), we
could pass only one resource from mpv builtin context backends to
hwdecs. It was also all GL specific.
Replace this with a newer mechanism. It works for all RA backends, not
just GL. the API user can explicitly pass the objects at init time via
mpv_render_context_create(). Multiple resources are naturally possible.
The API uses MPV_RENDER_PARAM_* defines, but internally we use strings.
This is done for 2 reasons: 1. trying to leave libmpv and internal
mechanisms decoupled, 2. not having to add public API for some of the
internal resource types (especially D3D/GL interop stuff).
To remain sane, drop support for obscure half-working opengl-cb things,
like the DRM interop (was missing necessary things), the RPI window
thing (nobody used it), and obscure D3D interop things (not needed with
ANGLE, others were undocumented). In order not to break ABI and the C
API, we don't remove the associated structs from opengl_cb.h.
The parts which are still needed (in particular DRM interop) needs to be
ported to the render API.
There is now a better way. Reading the font framebuffer was always a
hack. The new code via VOCTRL_SCREENSHOT renders it into a FBO, which
does not come with the disadvantages of reading the front buffer (like
not being supported by GLES, possibly black regions due to overlapping
windows on some systems).
For now keep VOCTRL_SCREENSHOT_WIN on the VO level, because there are
still some lesser VOs and backends that use it.
Using the GL renderer for color conversion will make sure screenshots
will use the same conversion as normal video rendering. It can do this
for all types of screenshots.
The logic when to write 16 bit PNGs changes. To approximate the old
behavior, we decide by looking whether the source video format has more
than 8 bits per component. We apply this logic even for window
screenshots. Also, 16 bit PNGs now always include an unused alpha
channel. The reason is that FFmpeg has RGB48 and RGBA64 formats, but no
RGB064. RGB48 is 3 bytes and usually not supported by GPUs for
rendering, so we have to use RGBA64, which forces an alpha channel.
Will break for users who use --target-trc and similar options.
I considered creating a new gl_video context, but it could double GPU
memory use, so I didn't.
This uses FBOs instead of glGetTexImage(), because that increases the
chance it could work on GLES (e.g. ANGLE). Untested. No support for the
Vulkan and D3D11 backends yet.
Fixes#5498. Also fixes#5240, because the code for reading back is not
used with the new code path.
Due to the plethora of historical baggage from different eras getting
confusing, I decided to simplify and unify the struct organization and
naming scheme.
Structs that got renamed:
1. fbodst -> ra_fbo (and moved to gpu/context.h)
2. fbotex -> removed (redundant after 2af2fa7a)
3. fbosurface -> surface
4. img_tex -> image
In addition to these structs being renamed, all of the names have been
made consistent. The new scheme is as follows:
struct image img;
struct ra_tex *tex;
struct ra_fbo fbo;
This also affects derived names, e.g. indirect_fbo -> indirect_tex.
Notably also, finish_pass_fbo -> finish_pass_tex and finish_pass_direct
-> finish_pass_fbo.
The new equivalent of fbotex_change() is called ra_tex_resize().
This commit (should) contain no logic changes, just renaming a bunch of
crap.
This is done in several steps:
1. refactor MPGLContext -> struct ra_ctx
2. move GL-specific stuff in vo_opengl into opengl/context.c
3. generalize context creation to support other APIs, and add --gpu-api
4. rename all of the --opengl- options that are no longer opengl-specific
5. move all of the stuff from opengl/* that isn't GL-specific into gpu/
(note: opengl/gl_utils.h became opengl/utils.h)
6. rename vo_opengl to vo_gpu
7. to handle window screenshots, the short-term approach was to just add
it to ra_swchain_fns. Long term (and for vulkan) this has to be moved to
ra itself (and vo_gpu altered to compensate), but this was a stop-gap
measure to prevent this commit from getting too big
8. move ra->fns->flush to ra_gl_ctx instead
9. some other minor changes that I've probably already forgotten
Note: This is one half of a major refactor, the other half of which is
provided by rossy's following commit. This commit enables support for
all linux platforms, while his version enables support for all non-linux
platforms.
Note 2: vo_opengl_cb.c also re-uses ra_gl_ctx so it benefits from the
--opengl- options like --opengl-early-flush, --opengl-finish etc. Should
be a strict superset of the old functionality.
Disclaimer: Since I have no way of compiling mpv on all platforms, some
of these ports were done blindly. Specifically, the blind ports included
context_mali_fbdev.c and context_rpi.c. Since they're both based on
egl_helpers, the port should have gone smoothly without any major
changes required. But if somebody complains about a compile error on
those platforms (assuming anybody actually uses them), you know where to
complain.
These can either be invoked as dispatch_compute to do a single
computation, or finish_pass_fbo (after setting compute_size_minimum) to
render to a new texture using a compute shader. To make this stuff all
work transparently, we try really, really hard to make compute shaders
as identical to fragment shaders as possible in their behavior.
Can be enabled via --vd-lavc-dr=yes. See manpage additions for what it
does.
This reminds of the MPlayer -dr flag, but the implementation is
completely different. It's the same basic concept: letting the decoder
render into a GPU buffer to avoid a copy. Unlike MPlayer, this doesn't
try to go through filters (libavfilter doesn't support this anyway).
Unless a filter can work in-place, DR will be silently disabled. MPlayer
had very complex semantics about buffer types and management (which
apparently nobody ever understood) and weird restrictions that mostly
limited it to mpeg2 style codecs. The mpv code does not do any of this,
and just lets the decoder allocate an arbitrary number of untyped
images. (No MPlayer code was used.)
Parts of the code based on work by atomnuker (starting point for the
generic code) and haasn (some GL definitions, some basic PBO code, and
correct fencing).
This is more efficient on my machine (nvidia), but only when applied to
groups of exactly 4 texels. So we switch to the more efficient
textureGather for groups of 4. Some notes:
- textureGatherOffset seems to be faster than textureGather by a
non-negligible amount, but for some reason, textureOffset is still
slower than a straight-up texture
- textureGather* requires GLSL 400; and at least on nvidia, this
requires actually allocating a GL 4.0 context.
- the code in opengl/common.c that clamped the GLSL version to 330 is
deprecated, because the old user shader style has been removed
completely in the meantime
- To combat the growing complexity of the polar sampling code, we drop
the antiringing functionality from EWA shaders completely, since it
never really worked well for EWA to begin with. (Horrific artifacting)
This partially reverts the change from a longer time ago to always build
DXVA2 and D3D11VA together.
To make it simpler, we change the following:
- building with ANGLE headers is now required to build D3D hwaccels
- if DXVA2 is enabled, D3D11VA is still forcibly built
- the CLI vo_opengl ANGLE backend is now under --egl-angle-win32
This is done to reduce the dependency mess slightly.
TLS is a headache. We should avoid it if we can.
The involved mechanism is unfortunately entangled with the unfortunate
libmpv API for returning pointers to host API objects. This has to be
kept until we change the API somehow.
Practically untested out of pure laziness. I'm sure I'll get a bunch of
reports if it's broken.
Wayland is still too amateurish, and multiple features don't work,
including critical ones. There is no solution in sight, so prefer X11.
(Which seems to mostly work ok via xwayland.)
Once all problems are solved, the defaults can be switched back.
Might be useful for other backends too. For context_vdpau, resize
handling, presentation, and handling the mapping state becomes somewhat
less awkward.
As the manpage says, this has no value other than adding bugs.
It uses code based on context_x11.c, and basically does very stripped
down context creation (no alpha support etc.). It uses vdpau for
display, and maps vdpau output surfaces as FBOs to render into them.
This might be good to experiment with asynchronous presentation. For
now, it presents synchronously, with a 4 frame delay (which should whack
off A/V sync). The forced 4 frame delay is probably also why interaction
feels slower.
There are some weird vdpau errors on resizing and uninit. No idea what
causes them.
Should have done this 1000 years ago. Now GL backends can use mp_log
macros directly on the MPGLContext, instead of doing stupid things like
for example MP_WARN(ctx->vo, ...).
This replaces the old backend that exclusively used EGL windowing with
one that can also use ANGLE's ability to render to directly to a
texture. The advantage of this is that it allows mpv to create the swap
chain itself and this allows mpv to use a flip-mode swap chain on a HWND
(which avoids problems with DirectComposition) and to use a longer swap
chain that has six backbuffers by default (which reportedly fixes
problems with rendering 24fps video on 24Hz monitors.)
Also, "screenshot window" should now work on DXGI 1.2 and up (Windows 8
and up.)
vo_opengl used to have it as sub-option, which made it very hard to pass
down option values to backends in a generic way (even if these options
were completely backend-specific). For --opengl-dcomposition we used a
VOFLAG to deal with this. Fortunately, sub-options are gone, and we can
just add it as global option.
Move the option to context_angle.c and add it as global option. I
thought about adding a mechanism to let backends declare options, which
would get magically picked up my m_config instead of having to add them
to the global option list manually (similar to VO vo_driver.options),
but decided against this complexity just for 1 or 2 backends. Likewise,
it could have been added as a single option to avoid the boilerplate of
an option struct, but then again there are probably going to be more
angle suboptions, and it's cleaner.
Thread-local storage in GCC is platform-specific, and some platforms that
are otherwise perfectly capable of running mpv may lack TLS support in GCC.
This change adds a test for GCC variant of TLS and relies on its result
instead of assumption.
Provided that LLVM's `__thread` support is similar to GCC, the test is
called "GCC/LLVM TLS".

There were multiple values under M_OPT_EXIT (M_OPT_EXIT-n for n>=0).
Somehow M_OPT_EXIT-n either meant error code n (with n==0 no error?), or
the number of option valus consumed (0 or 1). The latter is MPlayer
legacy, which left it to the option type parsers to determine whether an
option took a value or not. All of this was changed in mpv, by requiring
the user to use explicit syntax ("--opt=val" instead of "-opt val").
In any case, the n value wasn't even used (anymore), so rip this all
out. Now M_OPT_EXIT-1 doesn't mean anything, and could be used by a new
error code.
Minimal support just for testing.
Only the window surface creation (including size determination) is
really platform specific, so this could be some generic thing with
platform-specific support as some sort of sub-driver, but on the other
hand I don't see much of a need for such a thing.
While most of the fbdev usage is done by the EGL driver, using this
fbdev ioctl is apparently the only way to get the display resolution.
Add a function to egl_helpers.c for creating an EGL context and make
context_x11egl.c use it. This is meant to be generic, and should work
with other windowing APIs as well. The other EGL-using code in mpv can
be switched to it.
The consequence of this was that e.g. hardware decoding with VAAPI-EGL
could sometimes not work if the compiler didn't support C11. (Although I
found this one on RPI, which also uses this mechanism.)
It forces es2 mode on ANGLE. Only useful for testing. Since the normal
"angle" backend already falls back to es2 if es3 does not work, this new
backend always exit when autoprobing it.
Until now, we have tried to create a GL 3.0 context. The main reason for
this is that many Mesa-based drivers did not support anything better.
But some drivers (Mesa AMD) will not report a higher OpenGL version,
because their compatibility mode is restricted. While later GL features
are reported as extensions just fine, there doesn't seem to be a way to
determine or enable higher GLSL versions.
Add some more shitty hacks to try to deal with this messed up situation,
and try to probe each interesting GL version separately (starting with
3.3, then 3.2 etc.). Other backends might suffer from similar problems,
but these will have to deal with it on their own.
Probably fixes#2938, or maybe not.
Do this to make the license situation less confusing.
This change should be of no consequence, since LGPL is compatible with
GPL anyway, and making it LGPL-only does not restrict the use with GPL
code.
Additionally, the wording implies that this is allowed, and that we can
just remove the GPL part.
gcc 4.8 does not support C11 thread local storage. This is a bit
annoying, so add a hack to use the gcc specific __thread extension if
C11 TLS is not available.
(This is used for the extremely silly mpv-internal way hwdec modules
access some platform specific handles. Disabling it simply made
hwdec_vaegl.c always fail initialization.)
Fixes#2631.
Now common.c only contains the code for the function loader, while
context.c contains the backend loader/dispatcher.
Not calling it "backend.c", because the central struct is called
MPGLContext.
